I plan on having it looked at somewhere else than the dealer who replaced and then said just wait….by looking at the posts online I’m not sure if it isnt a bigger issue but I hope somewhat simple fix…..any idea how to access/replace the speed output sensor on this? The parts breakdown the dealer showed me was crap and would not help past that(duh).
Also forgot to mention another episode/problem…now 3 days after lights and dealer blow off….was leaving a parking lot and car stopped as in rolling, it was like I threw it from 3rd to park. Engine still running….pulled over to edge…shifted to reverse…..looked for anything hanging or leakes….hought I saw fluid but was only evap water fronm A/C no tran fluid….parked for 20 min and then strarted and drove 30mph…no lights or rough shifts…went slow didnt want to damage anything else…. was able to drive home about 10 mile at 40 mph and acting normal….could the output speed sensor failing do this?

Thanks for the replys. The tranny was replaced by the ford dealership that I bought the car at originally. normal maint has benn continued on the car since I ot it. Had tune-up done at about 85k. All rotars and brakes from calipers out have been replaced in last month.( irrelivantt to this issue but fyi). No auto part stores OR the Dealer have the output sensor..Has to be ordered but mfg is out of stock……..the dealership actually said “since it’s working now, why not just wait and see…..” I kid u not.
I will attempt to find a reputable repair shop and have it looked at but it seems stupid to replace any major drive train piece every 80-100k in a modern vehicle. Might be a reason ford didn’t offer any 100k powertrain warranties on these////PLease if there are any other ideas or someone who has any experience with this model or transmission reply..

Well I finally got the rear off…this time passenger inside shoes down to metal..pulled pistons out and were pretty stiff with very little lube. Also this time rotar shot as well… replaced pads and rotars and lubed like crazy.. had to use the special tool to compress piston like in video but did go in so hopefull caliper is still good…
crazy why opposite end/side of car had exact same issue?????
is it possible that piston in caliper SOMETIMES will go in and other times not? seems like random issue. can drive for a whole day with no grind and then go to stop and GRRRRRRR. then goes away for a day or more…any ideas why this would happen?
